Results – IWA: Red, White, & Bruised – 7/02/09

This past Thursday night was another WILD night of IWA Wrestling as our Superstars invaded The Backstage in Chillicothe, Ohio for this annual event.

The first match out of the shoot seen The Faceless Soldier take on Genuine Jock Samson. Samson, who has been on a winning streak as of late, proved to be to much for the patriotic newcomer as he scored the pen and the victory.

Cruiserweight action had Evan Daniels emerge victorious over Nick Abbott.

Otto Von Boogiemister, Jock Samson (seeing double duty), Mosey and Ricky Lee Stonerock all squared of in a four way Money In The Bank Match. In the end Boogiemiester was able to pull of a pen on Stonerock. This victory will allow Boogiemiester to make any match of his choosing in the next six months.

In what many considered an upset wrestling’s one legged wonder – Zack Gowen defeated Rick Ramsey to capture the IWA Cruiserweight championship.

The IWA United States Title was on the line as Chillicothe’s own, Chad Cruise, challenged M. E. Howerton for the gold. In what has to be considered the match of the night Cruise was able to capture Howerton in a Ankle Lock and with just seconds to go was able to get the submission and become the new champion.

Brady Land was up next with Brady interviewing the new Cruiserweight champion – Zack Gowen. Gowen was telling the fans how honored he was to be sporting the IWA belt when Commissioner Chris Serious made his way to the ring. Serious told everyone he had been looking to make some changes in the Cruiserweight division. He pointed out that the 220 pound weight limit was not exactly fare to the smaller wrestlers in the division. He then announced he was lowering the Cruiserweight weight limit to 199 pounds. Thus making Gowen to heavy to defend the title. Serious announced he was stripping Gowen of the belt and would be sanctioning a Cruiserweight ladder match to crown a new champion when the IWA returns to Chillicothe on August 6th.

In the main event two sets of IWA Superstars stepped into the sixteen foot high steel cage. One side seen the team of Bad News, Rok Wyler and the Riot Squad’s Bull Miller and Chris Cruit. The other team consisted of Dr. David Lanning, King Randy Allen, The Judge, the maniacal J.T. Hogg and the current IWA Hvwt. champion – Onyx. The rules was simple. Two men started the contest. Then every one minute an other man was allowed to enter the cage til all ten men was inside. Then anyone could be submitted or penned to be eliminated. The first team to have a man climb over the top of the cage and get to the arena floor would be declared the victors.

Chris Cruit and David Lanning started the match for their respective teams. As the ring filled up with IWA Superstars the action became very hot and heated. Bodys was slammed into the steel cage and the blood flew. Finally though it came down to just three men, Chris Cruit, Rok Wyler and Onyx. Cruit and Wyler immediately teamed up to work over Onyx. However Onyx was able to hit a Spear on Cruit and both men was down. As Onyx was getting to his feet Rok Wyler was waiting for him and clobbered him with his boot that he had removed. As Onyx and Rok Wyler fought Cruit was able to clime up over the cage and capture the victory for his team.

But this was not the end of the action. Rok Wyler and Onyx continued to fight in the cage. They was ordered to stop but refused to do so. Finally several of the IWA Superstars ran to the ring to break the two apart. It took several minutes but they was eventually separated and the night of action was over.

We would like to thank all the IWA wrestlers who gave their all to make this an exciting event. We also would like to thank all those who worked behind the scene to help us pull the event off. Without them this show would not have been possible.
